Is this part of my Hawk?

Miniminimike · 05-27-2017, 01:28 AM

Found this in the bottom of my Hawk 250 crate. Does it go to my bike? If so where?

its the clamp that ties the two exhaust pipes together just in front of the airbox.

Mine kept coming loose so I replaced the thumb nut with two nuts and locked it in place.

Thanks for the tip. It's all assembled and doing well. I will keep an eye on the clamp.

I need one of those clamps. Anybody got a spare one for sale?

Let me check my parts box. I threw mine somewhere when I swapped exhaust. I just can't remember if if was the parts bin or recycle bin.

If you can't find one,measure across those flanges, go to mcmaster-carr's website and search for tri-clamp. That's what it really is.

Be sure to Loctite the clamp threads, they loosen fairly quickly (especially at hand tight), or swap out nut for flex-locknut. I believe threads are M6-1.0 but am not sure so measure or take clamp with you to hardware store.

The tri clamp mentioned is part number 4322k152
I thought my clamp was secure but it departed on Tuesdays ride.
Thanks to this forum I knew what to order and had it over night.
This time it's on with loctite and safety wired.
